Maid-Rite, by the Numbers

Iowa. Mighty Iowa. Land to the northwestish. Land of stoic cattlemen. And somehow, of both John Wayne
and Tom Arnold. But today, let’s focus on a lesser-known export: the loose-meat sandwich, which
is sort of like a sloppy joe. But... not sloppy. Maid-Rite, purveyor of this fine savory, has
opened its first Chicago location. There’s really only one way to understand what this means.
Numerically.
